Chapter 336: Alliance
Ding dong!
The crisp doorbell rang in the interior of Tosaka House, and Rin Tosaka, who had just cleaned the basement and confirmed that there was no problem with the magic pattern, was a little puzzled.
"Who?"
Could it be that Mom is back?
Really, I'm going to summon the Heroic Spirit tonight, and she's going to distract me by saying that.
Rin Tosaka complained a little in his heart, and walked quickly to the door and opened the door.
"Mom, you...... Alas? ”
The words that she hadn't finished were swallowed back by Rin Tosaka strongly, because she felt that her front suddenly darkened, as if a mountain had appeared, and when she looked closely, it was actually a person of unusually tall height.
"It's you?!"
Stunned for a moment, Rin Tosaka immediately recalled this guy who gave him a great psychological shadow when he was a child.
Seeing Rin Tosaka busy tidying up the new guest room, Sakura and Zheng Shu glanced at each other again, and some kind of strange smile appeared on their faces.
However, after stepping back a little, she finally saw the whole picture of the person in front of her, and also saw the person sitting on Zheng Shu's shoulder.
Rin Tosaka looked at the clock several times in the process of tidying up the class and talking and talking, and now the time was already evening, so he needed to accurately calculate the time to summon the servants.
"Fate...... Scold! It can be seen that Kirizakura is very disdainful of this word.
Because from his position, it could be clearly seen that Sakura had an imperceptible smile on the corner of her mouth when Rin Tosaka was holding her hand in a panic.
Coming to the living room, Rin Tosaka pressed the cherry blossoms on the sofa hard, and then hurriedly ran to make a cup of black tea.
"Because I'm here to save my sister, Rin you're desperate again where I can't see, I think if I don't keep an eye on you this time, I'm afraid you'll mess up again." There was a slight annoyance in Sakura's expression.
"Rin, stupid!" Sakura pursed her lips and said with some unhappiness.
Or was he summoned again in the Holy Grail War?
"I didn't come back to fight on behalf of the Tosaka family, besides, if you still have such a comfortable attitude, sister, you will die in this Holy Grail War!"
"Before you talk to me, put Sakura down! What are you guys doing in broad daylight?! Rin Tosaka was a little crazy, and suddenly there was an illusion that the old father saw his little padded jacket being abducted by the ghost fire imp.
"Oops...... Sister, you should be considered a very standard tsundere like this. A wicked smile suddenly appeared on Sakura's face, "You have to be careful, tsundere is very disadvantaged in the 'war' of love, if you don't express your heart as soon as possible, the person you like may be taken away in the future." ”
"Well, anyway, you've already come over, and you've already obtained the status of the Master, so it's impossible for you to give up now."
"Give...... The Holy Grail War is going to start tonight, so for the sake of safety, Sakura, it's better for you to leave early. ”
"Huh? Didn't Sakura sit on my shoulder all the time when she was a child? What's wrong with that? Zheng Shu and Jian Tong Ying tilted their heads together in confusion.
"All in all, in order to prevent my sister from dying in this Holy Grail War because of carelessness, I must come back to help you this time. But judging by how you did just now, I'm thankfully back. Sakura said with a serious face.
"It's not too late for me to resonate with my magic, so let's talk about what to do in the future."
Rin Tosaka said seriously, and the whole person's body exuded a strong momentum, as if he had made up his mind.
Wrong! Isn't this guy a servant?! He must have disappeared after the last Holy Grail War, so why is he still here?
"You can rest assured." Zheng Shu, who hadn't spoken since just now, interjected on the side, "The day I came back, I used my own methods to investigate, and found that the berserker had run to other cities, and it seems that the people behind the scenes are also very aware of my ability and strength. I guess the day I returned to Fuyuki City, he had already given up on his plan to continue hunting for the Imperial Master candidate. ”
"Ahem, Sakura-chan, I didn't expect your sister to be so lively after so many years." After a long silence, Zheng Shu coughed awkwardly, trying to make the atmosphere of the scene no longer so cold.
Looking at Rin Tosaka, who suddenly became very flustered, Zheng Shu and Sakura Maki glanced at each other inexplicably, and the meaning in their eyes was the same:
Along the corridor to the door inside, Zheng Shu and Sakura changed their shoes in a regular manner, and then followed Rin Tosaka into the house.
"That's not going to work, sister, because I can't escape it now." Kirizakura. He took a sip of black tea elegantly, and by the way, he showed the back of his hand towards Rin Tosaka.
"It's ...... How can it be?! Rin Tosaka was a little incredulous, "Sakura-chan, how can you have a spell in your hand, hasn't the number of masters already been divided?" ”
But now these are all in the past, and for Sakura, who has ushered in a new life, she no longer has the slightest nostalgia for this home.
"But according to my observations, sister, you actually wanted me to go back directly just now, right?" Although he said a question, Sakura's expression was very affirmative.
"Ahem, okay, don't make a fuss, Rin Tosaka, right, we're here to ask for help this time." In the end, it was Zheng Shu who played the round.
"Little ...... Sakura?! How did you get back? Wrong! Why are you sitting on this person's shoulder? Rin Tosaka clenched the gem in his hand in fright, and stared at Zheng Shu with dead eyes, "You bastard, did you kidnap Sakura?" It's despicable that you're going to threaten me with Sakura! ”
It seems that since that day, the other party has given up on the assassination of the imperial candidate, and he probably doesn't want to confront him in advance, so he chooses to concentrate on constructing the treasure of Empress Semiramis.
Looking at Rin Tosaka's puzzled expression, Sakura sighed helplessly and slowly said the changes about this Holy Grail War.
"Long time no see, Rin." After Sakura fell to the ground, she patted her own clothes a little, and then looked up at her sister in front of her, and a little smile appeared on her cold face.
Sakura has a very complicated feeling about this home, in addition to nostalgia, there is also a little hatred, but after all, this is a place that once made her feel extremely happy, whether it is Shichen or Aoi, at least before letting herself go out, she is worthy of the name of her parents.
With such a high height, even if the Tosaka family's house is luxurious enough, it is basically impossible to let Zheng Shu and the two of them enter like this.
Rin Tosaka took two steps back vigilantly, and a few gems appeared in his hand, although he knew that these gems alone could not pose any threat to the other party, but Rin Tosaka's pride did not allow him to surrender without any resistance.
In her impression, Sakura is still the little girl who hides behind her when she encounters something she is afraid of, so in the face of Sakura Makiri's sudden appearance on the eve of the Holy Grail War, Rin Tosaka's first thought is to let her go to refuge with her mother.
Seeing that Zheng Shu and his sister's eyes became strange, Rin Tosaka stood up in a panic and dragged Kirizakura's luggage in the direction of the guest room: "Let's go, it's not too early, I'll help you tidy up the guest room, you can live here today!" ”
"All in all, Sakura-chan, you shouldn't come back, the Tosaka family only needs me to fight alone."
Finally, when everything was cleaned up, the three of them sat back down in the living room.
"Alas!! How is it possible that such a big change has happened in this Holy Grail War? No, if someone has been hunting down a master with a magician background, wouldn't we be very dangerous right now?! Rin Tosaka immediately looked out of the window vigilantly, as if a servant would appear there at any moment to attack the Tosaka house.
"It's so easy to understand."
Zheng Shu saw Beowulf's appearance through the monitor in the night of the Tong Yan, so he naturally chose to use his moon god blessing to try to find it.
Glancing at the two people who had already walked away, Zheng Shu picked up the luggage in his hand and stepped into the mansion of the Tosaka family with his head down, and locked the door behind him by the way.
Rin Tosaka was frightened by Sakura's expression, she never thought that her sister would show such an angry look: "What does this mean? ”
"......" Zheng Shu and Ma Kirizakura looked silently at Rin Tosaka, who was possessed by the drama spirit in front of them.
However, when it came time to use the Lunar God's Blessing at night, he found that after only one day, Beowulf had already run to a location three cities away from Fuyuki City.
On the back of Sakura's hand, in addition to the three concentric circles that Zheng Shu used a lot of magic to help her carve in the last Holy Grail War, there was also a strange-looking spell that looked like a tattoo.
After all, Zheng Shu's height alone is already more than two and a half meters, and Jian Tong Sakura sits on his shoulder, and the two of them together may be almost three meters tall.
"Do we have to continue talking at the door until then? Or is it that the Tosaka family still doesn't welcome me in? ”
"What are you talking about?" Rin Tosaka obviously showed a little weakness, "This is the fate of the Tosaka family!" ”
"Who...... Who has someone they like?! That guy's head is just a piece of wood, how could I possibly like him?! ”
Rin Tosaka glanced at Zheng Shu with suspicion after listening to his explanation, but after recalling the strength that Zheng Shu had shown in the last Holy Grail War, he carefully hid his suspicious eyes.
"Of course, who would have thought you'd come! And since this Holy Grail War is so dangerous, you shouldn't come back, you just need to let me face it alone......"
"Sakura-chan, why did you come back at this time? Didn't you study at the Edfelt house, why did you suddenly come back at this point in time?! Rin Tosaka said with some concern.
"So! In order to! Say! Rin, your intelligence is too far behind! Sakura looked a little angry, too.
Because he didn't want to make his father's tactical mistakes again, Rin Tosaka chose to rely on each other's tacit understanding to summon the servants, so it is very important to summon them at the right time, and the right time can greatly increase the strength of the summoned servants.
"This girl is completely toyed with by Sakura......" Zheng Shu pouted secretly as he watched the interaction between the two people.
And since that day, there has been no news of the death of a magician who was chosen as a candidate for the throne in Fuyuki City.
"Wow! Sakura actually said that about me again? We've been separated for so long, but they still hate me so much! Rin Tosaka staggered back two steps, as if he had been hit by an arrow in the chest.
"Listen sister, I'm not alarmist, this Holy Grail War is not at the same level as before, and I only ran back after hearing about these situations."
Rin Tosaka looked a little irritated: "Really, Sakura is just too worried, if you come back to help me, what if you are in danger?" ”
Recalling Amakusa Shiro's identity when he was hidden in the Templar Church, Zheng Shu didn't wonder why he knew about his reconnaissance ability.
"No, no! You are mistaken! Rin Tosaka panicked and pulled Sakura Makiri to the house, looking like she was afraid that Sakura would leave angrily because of her language problems.
Sakura's expression looked a little complicated, but this was also very normal, after all, she never came back to see it after being passed to the family of Ma Kiri.
But after all, Zheng Shu still raised his palm very obediently, and Jian Tong Sakura used his palm as a force point, and with a slight press of one hand, the whole person jumped off Zheng Shu's shoulder lightly, and gracefully turned over and fell to the ground.
It can even be said that the only thing she cares about in Tosaka's family now is probably Rin Tosaka.
"Huh? Sister, what are you talking about? Why develop a strategy? Sakura tilted her head and said innocently.
Rin Tosaka has already shown obvious signs of madness, and the originally strong momentum has also been broken: "Isn't that what you said?" There is a huge problem in this Holy Grail War, and of course we have to devise a strategy just in case! ”
"No, the reason why I came here this time is just to remind my sister of you, as for the strategy or something, there is no need for Berserker at all!" There is a strong confidence in Ma Kiri's tone, I am afraid that even Zheng Shu herself does not have the confidence she has in Zheng Shu.
"He? Okay, I'll admit that this guy did a great job in the last Holy Grail War, but so what, is he qualified to participate in this Holy Grail War? ”
